“Brittany was amazing when she took care of our dogs for a whole week! We boarded them at her home and I’m know our pups enjoyed their stay! She updated us everyday and we are forever grateful! We would use her again in a heartbeat!”

“Sophia was amazing. From the moment we dropped off me and my husband both felt so comfortable and at ease leaving our baby with her. We were updated throughout his whole stay with pictures. He went on walks, and got to play with other friends. We will definitely be booking her again ❤️”

“Would definitely recommend! I know my girl had a great time here (apparently she loved the pool). Kayla/Richard provided photos throughout her stay and updated us on what she had been up to. Will definitely be using in the future!”

“Our dog Lady had the time of her life with David, Krysta, their boys, and her new best friends, Archie & Flash. We were heading to the beach for a portion of our vacation, and our condo did not allow pets. We needed her to be nearby and found David and Krysta through Rover. We got great pictures and videos of her time with the family, and their nice backyard and house was perfect for her. She was treated like a member of their family. In fact, when we got there to pick her up, she was trying to go back in their house and keep playing. :) So thankful we found this nice family to take such wonderful care of Lady!”

“Alexandra and crew (people, cats and a dog) were so welcoming that our two aussies were soon happy with their doggie vacation. They had very much built-in play time with the resident dog, and bonded with humans and animals alike in ways we'd not heard of from new contacts since Misty was a puppy (seriously, the pics and descriptions indicated a level of ease, happiness and playfulness we see with them at home). At pick-up time, they were glad to have us visit, but didn't seem completely ready to leave, We cannot imagine a better experience for our pups. If we manage to come to Miramar Beach again, we will definitely try Alexandra again.”

“Chelsee was wonderful with our girls! We have two one-year-old, very active dogs and she did not hesitate to take them on! She was very communicative during our trip and sent lots of pictures (which helped us to know how well they were being taken care of). We truly appreciate Chelsee and her care of our girls and would definitely entrust her with their care again !”

“Heather was amazing! She sent daily updates and photos of our dog and how he was doing. She went above and beyond to make sure that our dog was comfortable as he was so nervous and has separation anxiety. He was well cared for and we were at ease the entire time. I would not hesitate to rebook with her.”

“She was amazing with our dogs, every-time we would ask for an update she would respond in a timely manner and provided pictures almost everyday. I can tell the dogs enjoyed staying with her and especially loved her huge backyard. Will definitely book with her again!”

“Dana and her family have been amazing! They watched our 5 year old Labrador, and provided plenty of updates. He got lots of play time and snuggles. She was flexible with our pick up time when our flight home got cancelled, and it was so nice to know we didn’t have to worry about our pup! Can’t recommend Dana enough!!!”

“We feel that Mia received the best of care from Rosemary & Matthew. I'm sure she was in good hands.....even tho she hid in the closet for most of her stay! We would use them again.”

“Carla was wonderful. She truly cares about your dog(s) as though they were her own. Communication was dependable and she kept me apprised of our dogs progress throughout their stay. Her son was very gentle and engaged well with our dogs. Upon pick-up we could tell the dogs were comfortable and not stressed. I would highly recommend Carla to others, and would gladly reach out to her again next time we need someone to watch our dogs.”

“Gabrielle was amazing!!! We were in Destin for a family trip and wanted to bring our dogs with us. The resort we were at doesn’t allow pets so we needed a sitter nearby. Our dogs were always safe in her care, and we received tons of updates and photos daily. We were even able to take our dogs for a couple of hours since she was so flexible:) I would definitely recommend Gabrielle for anyone wanting a sitter, and we’ll be booking with her again next time we’re in the area!!❤️”

“Brittney was terrific watching our dog. She always responded in a timely manner, was completely flexible to any requests/concerns we had, and provided us regular photos and feedback of the visit. Our dog is fairly anxious and doesn't spend much time alone. Leaving him at a traditional boarding kennel causes a lot of stress on all of us. Brittney did great watching him, and he seemed to be very comfortable with her. We had a terrific vacation knowing he was in good hands while were at the beach. I would absolutely recommend her services.”

“Katie and her husband were amazing with our dogs!!! They are worth every penny and more! Facilities: As advertised! Clean, comfortable spaces for our dog crates and beds. Tons of running room for dogs that need to stretch their legs. They even sent us photos of the dogs visiting with the neighboring cattle through the fence. Care: Our dogs were well taken care of and it was evidenced by their comfort level, happiness, and food intake while we were gone. One of our dogs is fairly aggressive to men she doesn't know. Katie's husband had our dog in heaven with all the belly rubs and playing. Cost: We got much more than we paid for! Thank you so much and we WILL definitely be back. For folks visiting Destin or Panama City Beach, these guys really know what they are doing and the extra drive to them is well worth knowing that your animals are well cared for, in a safe place, and you will return to find them happy and healthy!! Can't wait to see ya'll again.”

“Josie did a great job watching our little dog, Wallace! She made sure that Wallace felt welcome and sent many pictures to let us know that he was happy! She was very thorough with details before we arrived. I highly recommend Josie to watch your dog!”

About: I have cared for and trained my dog, my mother’s and grandmother’s dogs. I have also provided a variety of personal home-care services to senior citizens, special needs children & nannied off and on throughout my early adult life. I love caring for and helping others. I substitute teach during the school year and I would love to care for pets during the summer time! It is my goal to at least work part time on top of another part time job! :) I have an apartment where I can keep pets for a short amount of time; we have a nice walking area and a dog park.

“Allison took such great care of my cat for 5 days. He’s never been under someone else’s care for the 16 years I’ve had him. He was well cared for and felt safe. Thank you Allison!!!!!”

“Betina was amazing with my dog Griff! He’s a senior dog and needed lots of extra care during his stay and she was so kind and accommodating. I highly recommend Betina if you’re looking for quality care for your fur babies!”
